2005
Iowa - Carlisle & Des Moines
2005 marked the very beginning of Starving Iguanas. Up until this point (since 2001), I had only been using 35mm when I took photos.
I also have included a few photos from 2006 in this collection, because they were taken before I 'Hit the road" and began my nomadic photography lifestyle. So, in my mind they belong to the 2005 collection, as I hadn't yet truly begun to create a style that was uniquely my own.
2006
Niagra Falls (NY), Boston, Providence (RI), NYC, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, DC, Chippewa Falls (WI) & Minnesota
March 6th, 2006 was the day I began exploring the American countryside, camera in hand. Matthawk & I left Iowa in our van, Rufus P. Rockwell... heading Northeast through Chicago, up to Niagra Falls & over to Boston (for St. Patrick's Day). Afterwards, we headed South to Providence, then continued onward into NYC.
It was my time in NYC that helped begin the majority of my 'urban decay' photos, focusing my eye onto the grimey breakdown of manmade objects & the subtle idea of 'Nature Winning over Time'.
We continued South into Baltimore, DC, Philadelphia & finally stopped in Pittsburgh. After a bit we eventually headed back towards the Midwest. The forests of Chippewa Falls (WI) & the Minnesota lakes were a much needed breath of fresh air... after spending so much time in big cities.
